I'm using this recipe:
https://www.hersheys.com/kitchens/en_us/recipes/hersheys-perfectly-chocolate-chocolate-cake.html
Here we have sugar, flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, and salt mixed together in a bowl.
Then we add eggs, milk, oil, vanilla, and boiling water.
Pour into a prepared cake pan (I fudged it a little, nobody cares) and bake. I find 35 minutes works best.
This one came out with a smile.
Now we need to make frosting. I will be using this recipe:
https://www.hersheys.com/kitchens/en_us/recipes/perfectly-chocolate-chocolate-frosting.html
It says to melt the butter, but I just let it come to room temperature and cream the devil out of it and add the cocoa, sugar, milk, and vanilla slowly. Be sure to make a mess like I did. Then you can frost the cooled cake.
Tada! I hope you try this recipe. It is truly the best chocolate cake. Sure to captivate a man's heart. Go for it!
